Subject: Teelin Irish Dance Festival - an overview of the competitions

Registration for competitions at the Teelin Irish Dance Festival are currently open at www.efeis.com! Registration closes on April 30.

More information about the festival may be found on this page of the Teelin website: www.teelin.com/teelincompetition.htm

Many of the competition groups are geared toward introducing dancers to a feis. Therefore, the competitions for reel, light jig, slip jig, treble jig and hornpipe are for dancers in Beginner through Level 3 / Advanced Beginner levels.

More experienced dancers are encouraged to consider entering the Treble Reel competition and/or any of the team competitions: 2-Hand, 4-Hand, or Original Choreography.

ALL dancers and Teelin Family members who play a musical instrument are encouraged to consider entering the music competitions! These will occur in the middle of the day this year, and are a GREAT way to celebrate Irish music, and to encourage further development of traditional music.

(Remember seeing Maureen's Dad, Mike Berry, at the Spring Show? He plays pretty much any instrument that fits in a box, and is passionate about encouraging interest in Irish music! Mr. Berry would love to be able to offer budding Irish musicians some encouragement, and possibly a few pointers for their development. He and our famous local musician, Billy McComiskey, will be judging the music competitions, and the emphasis will be on ENCOURAGEMENT. Give it a try!)

Hope that helps a bit... if there are any questions at all please don't hesitate to ask!
